Webinars are great- however, depending on what the topis is, many times the session fills up. I prefer to be on a webinar live and in real time-- I am not sure I enjoy viewing archived webinar unless required

I love webinars. I suggested a webinar for new youth grantees to learn about financial reporting responsibilities and scheduled a Q & A session for later. I will be conducting the Q & A today. I’ll let you know how it worked out after the session.

We are beginning to actively participate in webinars. As a "stand-up trainer" I find it challenging to engage people that I can't see. So, we have worked to incorporate polling questions to "read" the audience and determine what information is interesting to them and fits with their learning needs.

Can't wait to hear Mallery's results from the Q&A. One collaborative effort between a university and an area high school is utilizing this technology to engage high school students to build presentation skills that will enhance their college success and job opportunities.
